Strengths/Question Marks: “The team is led by a strong core of seniors that have an enormous amount of playing experience that we hope will provide leadership to the incoming youthful areas of our roster. The team is filled with the potential for high offensive firepower, and we will be relying on our young setters to get them the ball. The question will be if we can improve defensively and in serve receive to allow our young setters to gain confidence and success as the season progresses.”
Outlook: “With a very talented and experienced senior class, the coaching staff is very excited for the upcoming season. Led by Outside Hitters Steph Judkins and Maddie Mosser, we are hopeful that the team can make strides throughout the season to push for a playoff spot. The team will rely heavily on senior Libero Caitlin Saalfrank to lead the team’s serve receive and defense to ease the acclimation process of the youthful setter position early in the season.”
